Worth bidding?? HELP!

[Clare]

I'm bidding on these bottles on Ebay and want some advice. How rare (or not!) is the large poison bottle? I want to know whether to continue fighting to win it?

I have 7hrs until bidding closes.

it really depends on how interested you are in the item ? and if its worth the extra shipping costs

its not something I'd bid on personally but not the type of bottles I collect either

I collect 'patent medicine' bottles mainly, but I do like the poison bottles. They're pretty common though, so I only want the rarer ones.

Coffins and any skull and cross bone poisons are very collectable. Have the original stopper even better.

Collect what you like. Like what you collect. Not what I like to collect, but it is very pretty and if you like it...

Since you are in England and the bottles are in England, most posters here will not have a lot of insight into these bottles. The hobnail poison has some value but I don't know how much. The other two bottles have very little value.

Thank you, it's only the hobnail one I want tbh.

I think those run $50-$60 (USD) in good shape.

Did you get them?

The littlest one is probably a Blackwoods ink, BTW. I have one that size and shape with the embossing. Here in the US that would be an indelible ink. Guessing it probably was in England as well.
